A request for funding from the developers of the Village Green apartments in Independence Park in Hyannis was put on hold Aug. 24 when the town’s affordable housing/growth and development trust fund board lost a slender quorum.

There were just enough members gathered, but Laura Shufelt, who works with the Massachusetts Housing Partnership, had to recuse herself. The developer, Dakota Partners, is seeking state funds in addition to the $100,000 it’s asking from the town trust fund.

Dakota co-founder Roberto Arista, after learning that his deadline with the state was a little more forgiving than he’d thought, said he’d return, or send a representative, for a future meeting.

Village Green is designed to offer 120 units, a majority of them affordable by state standards, in two phases of 60 apartments.
